Fashion of the Natiou—What An English Ship- owner Dreada—List of Americans Present How the Arabe Fared. SUEz, Nov, 23, 1869, Mashallah! Egypt has indeed falien upon strange times, The whole order of things seems reversed ! Pharoab’s land looks upon wonderful anomalies, and from the mastheads of an immense fleet of steamers European satior boys look upon Goshen, the Wilderness of Shur and the Amalekite region | Above the placid rippliugs of the Crocodile Lake tower sixty great iron hulls of steamers, Above the golden sands of the desert crossed by Moses and the children of Jacob rise a forest of spars and cordage. On the shore of Goshen stands a city of tne nineteenth cen- tury architecture, close to the ruins of Rameeses and Pithom. Brick and limestoue walls and wooden structures replace Egyptian pylons, and Swiss cha lets and Gothic cottages stand where the tdolators of Egypt bent the knees to Pashet and Apls. Egyptian antiquity has lapsed from 113 sombre silence and loucliness to youthful mirth and vigor. ‘Tuese are the thoughia that fit across one’s mind a8 his ship lies anchored in the sea green waters of Tumsan, For to @ man of lively imagination, kin- diea by the sayings of Egyptoligists and savants, who constantly din into our ears what this ove par- tcular spot and what the other one was fn @ncicat times when the Pharcahs livea, aud whose whole thoughis have become thoroughly colored with the proper antiquarian hue, to realize that this is the nineteenth century of the Chrisilan era, and the fortietn from Moses, ls a hard task indeed. Even the sight visibio on Lake Timsah at the present mowent, the sounds which come fuil upon the ear from the shore, the knowledge of what the sight and sounds means fail to eutirely dissipate the strange dream into which one is apt to fall when surrounded by, Egyp- flan scenes. The tance like mood in which ia re- iearsed all that the menial precis affords of what one mey have read or beard of Egypt, comes most inopportunely; for when the attention should be concentrated upon someting else the mind stum- bles upon scraps of Scripture lustory, or upon what vliny, Strabo or Herodotus wrote concerning a Pua- raob, a Ptolemy, a Cleopatra, a Caracalla or a Owsar, From such & mood yonr correspondent once more awakes to recite what further velel the fleets of ¥Yurope while anchored in Timsah Lake; what sights und sounds atcended the arrival of the strangers who came to Egypt to witness the imauguration of te Suez ship canal; how the French Empress and tbe Austrian Emperor were received, and how the mass of Staiely steamers proceeded on their way to Suez, and ali other things of interest which beiong to the sulject, from the place where I lefi off iu my last letter, Ab fast as the ships came in and anchored close to their respective buoys in the Wke the passengers, after suiicteut'y admiring the Lake Tiusah, scan- ning with wonder the browulsh desert, and haying bad a fair view of the town of ismaiiia irom op board, hystened to pat on their best clothes and to go ashore for a stroll throngn the town that looked so pretty and inviting from a distance.

And auch a mediey of humanity as brushed by and elbowed us unceremoniously to the right and left, as crowded ou us tn front and rear, not very inconyen ently, must be admitted when the seven senses were occupied wish the varled sounds thut smote on the ear and the multiform scenes which greeted tho eye. Im one nearly impassable mass were assembled on the great aveuue partly shaded by two rows of Acacta trees, the represen- tatives of al) known nations, The bewhiskered and vepuzzled Knglishman, with his enormous girth of belly and affected vulce, swelling with importance aud antagonism, nucomiortably jostied us to tne left, while @ swarthy Arab shelk, supreme in his unconsciousness and pliitosophic look, with jet beard and hali-dreamy eyes, turoaned and kattaned to the fuil, swung bimseif on our right, unmindsul of self, aud utterly indifferent to ali we rest of the world, Ciose behind tne latcer strode, perhaps, a Bedouin, fresh frem the desert, black of complexion as the board he wore, broad shouldered aud stroug lmbed, with ap expansive chest, ® coun\ensnce Tepiete with cunning, and a pair of restiess eyes.

Staid, sober-minded, sober-faved wud sober-faciug Geraians Were also here, aii spectacled, young and vid, if they wanted to make every one believe they Were all savants, and had worn their eyesight through over study, when it is well known that Germans have 42 good eyes as any oiler Ration, And Americans, curious people from over the Ausntic, who had cole to seé the canal and fina ont for themselves what the prospects were for an Undertaking 80 much depreciated by the Hngiisb; Lucy Were aiso On tue Avenue MM groups, discussing Socially the prog and con’ of the case, while beside Ucn, besides we weltering homogeneous national.

Many of theso wore filled up with German and French savana and historlographers, Italian and Hungartan, Austrian and Spanish’ ag att and artists, and the hundreds of “big bugs’ of all countries whom it would be a task 10 enumerate. Though it was curious to note the preparations they all made for the ball to take place that night, tickets for which had been given out to all who pre- sented their cards, still was it more interesting to traverse the ground occupied by the Arab shelks and their retainers. These independent village chiefs, fromthe upper Nile and the Jelta, had never come to Ismailia, were It not that the Viceroy had sent, and commanded them to appear on pain of his displeasure. One of these sheiks was asked as he journeyed towards the canal ay to where he was going with such @ number of men. He replied that the Khedtve had told him to go to Ismailia to show the “Fransarvai’—‘the French giri!!—what an Arab fantasia was. So the lovely Kmpres who, with her grace and condescension, kindled al European hearts into a eh pitch of admiration for her, could receive no higher compliment froma Bedouin than to be calied the “French girl.” In- deed from conversation with them through a clever interpreter they could not pe made to understand that tbe French girl waa more powerful than the Khedive of Egypt. but they coald understand that sho mignt be tae favorite silltana of the French Sul- tan; but why she was permitted to travel abroad, unveiled and without hor master, was perfectiy un- inteligivle, and will ever remain, 1 suppose, a grave mystery 10 them.

Dineenstons Iu tho Brazilinn Cabinet Relative to the Continuauce of the War—The Empe- rors Views—Opposition of the Liberale— Prospective Closing up of the War. Rio JaNRiRo, Nov. 24, 1869, On Satnrday last, after the arrival of the mails from Paraguay, there was something of a row among the Minisiera, some of them urging with great warmth that tho war be stopped, and that all the troops and vossela except 2,000 men and two or three gunboats, to be left for the safety of the provisional government and the navigation, be withdrawn as quickly as possible. The other sec- tion of the Cabinet, however, holds with the Em- peror, that, however cosily the war may be, tne only thing that ought or can be safely done is to carry on the chase of Lopes until he be caught, or be in- duced to prefer a residence in foreign parts to being made game of. Whatever may bo the opinion of some of the Cabinet, there is no wavering in the Emperor's resolve that the war against Lopez shall not cease so long as he is free in Paraguay. The Emperor's argument 18 the jollowing:— Setting aside the barbarity of Lopes and the savage manner in which he has treated hundreds of our unoffending citizens, the sreacherous manner in which he commenced the war shown that we can Lave no security for peace with him, and we might at any moment be called into another war against him to restrain bis eggreasion. On the other hand, we can- Dot ever be In a better position for settling with bim than Wwe are now, and a little mure outlay and perseverance at the Prosent te may save us very much bloo and money here- after. Aud he closes up by saying, “I will never consent to treat with Lopez; and it is certain that if the present Cabinet will not carry out his views the reins of power will be handed to a more compliant one. Still it is believed tuere will be no need to make @ change of administrators. it seems, however, Wolerably certain that the River Plate governments are tnolined fo insist upon calling the war ended and recalling the majority of their troops. The Argentine Foreign Miniaver was to have come here by the last packet, but at the last moment his direction was changed to Asnncion, to the great rellef of the Brazilian government, who did not like their own precedent iu the Webb affair brought home to them #0 inconveniently, and there is no doubt the Brazilian representatives in the River Yiate made strong representations to President Sarmieuto to induce him to send Varella to Asuncion instead of Rio. The subjects to be treated of at Asuncion between the Brazilian and the Argentine Ministers of Foreign Affairs are understood to be the retiremont of the forces, ox- cept # brigade and two or throe armed vessels; che free election of a President, to take the place of the provisional government; and the questions as by what means the Paraguayan government will raise fauds to keep liself afioat—a very difficult sabject— for the Paraguayan people must be for some time to come notliing but a nation of paupers, reywring aid vo keep tuem from starving.

More than 500 persons wore redersed while at the order of Lopes they ware going towards the iio Verde, We aulfered ‘not the least loas in Lhe engagement. ‘The troops under General Camara have been increased to 5,000 men, and he was preparing to undertake # march towards the mountains to try {ng Intercept Lopez’s line of retreat 1m the direction of the northern part of the Paraguayan chain, ‘The news from the Comte d’Eu’s forces is that nis advance entered Curuguaty on the 28th of October, afier beating 8 small iorce outside and routing the garrison of 400 meu. The Paraguayan loss 13 given at ninety kiled, sixty-eight wounded and 102 prisoners. Lopez was reported to be at Iguatemy, torty or fifty miles away, and the troops that entered Curugoaty continued thefr march in tnat direction. ‘The Comte d’Eu reached a horse farm, about twenty miles beyond St. Ketanisias, upon the loth of October, and encamped there, because his pro- visions had not arrived. The troops were totally without ratious for three days, and they had to live on mgs pals and other natural products of the woods, However, a8 soon as he was able to collect gome cattie he started off his advance guard, but determined on remataing encamped until he could form @ depot of food wiere he was, so as to be able to vicunal the forces more easily. for this pur- he gave up depending on the contractors, and, bestaes uying all the cattle he could get, he pur- chas ea 900,000 rations at Montevideo, which were sent off in light steamers, At last dates these were arriving, and the depot was being formed. The Comte d’Eu is reported to be raging at the negiect of the Brazilian officials to keep the contractors to therr duty. A private letter from his camp saya his men had a weuaried, haif-starved look, and many desertions had occurred, Two biscuits were selling tor a dol- lar, end everything was proportionately extor- uonate. All the letters from the army say that the Comte a’Kn is determined to follow Lopes from place to place until he Onishes with him or until it es impossible for troops to follow him. In this he ts no doubt backed up by the Emperor. The follow. ing exposé of the Comte d/Eu’s plans when under- taking the flanking of Ascurra may be interesting. ‘The statement is understood to be in nearly the words he used at the counell of generals held at Pirajd, and they may serve to illustrate the views held by hun tm-regard to the work yet to be done:— ‘The capital {dea of the new pian of operations must be to surprise the enemy im his present positions, if he he Manguvira we siall have war for ® long lime, in diculty in victualling our forces tn the ‘and expreme nocts o¢ the republic; and the oniy 4 of realizing my iden \s to Jeave fn front of Ascurra a foroo covering Asuncion and able to contain Loper, while we occupy the mouth of the Mandavire, Caragu a Valonzucia by means of nstrations nenes Of th deceive the enemy s& to our real wilt fall i a o api auion of Gur forces, If the later loading to that position au arold th {t fa not too much to ‘éding of further blood, and walt four or @ve months more, when batted ‘been waitin, hearly five f, however, the an glory ones more.

The charges on which he was tried were for forging and uttering drafts purporting to be accepted by Horace Greeley, and for swindling. The evidence was insufiicient to establish the first counts, but the jury convicted nim of the last, and a sentence of slx years ln- prisonment, with labor and fine, was recorded, Besides the usual ex-oficio reference made by the Judge, an appeal was made by his advocate, and it i@ thought a new trial will be granted.

Motion for a Reargument of the General Term Appeal—The New Constitutioa—Was the Recent Decision Invalid—Importe ant Question — Motion for Reargument Denied, ‘The General Term of the Supreme court was yos- terday crowded to excess, the occasion being a new phase in the Real murder case, the particulars of which, it 8 almost nocdiess to state, are by this time but too well known, A decision wa recently given by the General Term Supreme Court aMrming the decision of the court below, to the effect that the triat of Real for the murder of police oMcer Smedio® was fair and just, and tnat the jury could not have came to any otner conclusion than that arrived af Judges Barnard and Clerke aMrmed the decision, Judge Cardozo dissenting, as he held that the pris- oner was entitled toa new trial. Considerable inter~ est was yesterday manifested in the proceedings in re gard to the manner in which the motion was Drougat before the court, It appears by the amendment to the constitution entitied the Judiciary act the Judge who tries a case cannot sit in the Court of Appeals. Judge Barnard presided at the trial when the prisoner was found guilty, and also rendered an aflirmatory decision when the matver came to be argued before the General Term. Every one present 1n court yesterday bore the expression of anxiety, and just as the proceedings commenced a death like silence prevailed. Tho court was componed of Jndges Clerke (presiaing), Ingraham and Suthes lend, Ex-Judge Stuart said he now moved the Court for leave to reargue the éase of Real vs. The People, upon the ground that two judges. had decided for an aMfrmance and one in favor of granting a now trial; that one of the judges who affirmed the judg- ment of the court below was the judge who tried the case at Oyer and Terminer; that the late amendment of the constitution, called the ‘Judiciary aruole,” was now in operation, and nad been since its ratia. cation by the people, and which proht bited the same Judge who tried a case taking part in the case upon appeal, and that, therefore, no legal judgment had yet been rendered at all; in other words, that the decision lately rendered was inyalld, siace one the judges who concarred in the amirmance was dis- qaalified from participating in the case when tt came before the court upon appeal, Undor the cure cumstance be moved to reargue before juagea aka seria according to the terms of the new const ution. t District Attorney Garvin in reply stated that with regard to the motion itself nothing could at present be said, but with regard to the merits of the mo- tion, counsel for the prisoner must first obtain leave for tiie purpose of making such a motion. He dx not see, however, that the counsel had any right to pass upon tbe question, nor did he see how they could get the prisoner into court again, Tre ques- tion had already been disposed of. aud they could now proceed only on the ground that some matter of importance bad been inadvertently overlooked, certainly on some sort of papers which presented the question before the same tribunal that had ren- dered the decision, He contended that such amo- tion as was now sought to be made could not be presented belore @ differently constituted tribunat as that which decided the case, There- fore, ~ if the counsel for the prisoner wished 0 make the motion there was resent an utter bar to thoir proceeding. ut it was aiseretionary on tho part of this court whetner the motion was set down for any definite day. Atall events a motion must be made for leave to appear before the tribunal that heard and decided the previous arguments. Counsel for the prisoner sald 1t would be ridicu- lous to argue the question before the court, as objection was taken to the sitting of one of the judges who com} it, and whose presence as @ member vitiated the organization of that court, He (counsel) meant if that judge were now present he would ask him to retire, as the new covstituion ex- pressly prohibited him ting as a member of the court. He now asked that a day be assigned for the hearing of the arguments, In this motion they followed the precedent set by the Court of Ap- peals in the case of Oakley vs. tele % whioh a@ judgment of reversal had beeh vacated because Judge Strong, who lad taken part in the decision was ‘Gisqualified by consaguinity in the eixth or seventh degree. He contended that the article of the constivution bad become law since the election, although the court may have boen legaily constimted in time past, when the argument upon the writ of error was mado. He claimed that under the now constitution the recent judgment of tue court was Void, since the court was vitiated by the presence of the judge who tried the case. This was B case of great magnitude, as it involved the life of a human bemg. whe counsel for the prisoner were now prepared to argue that the new sixth article of the State constituuon became law upon its adoption by the voice of the people. Now that very article prohibited any judge to alt in review of his own acuons tn an inferior court. Under all the circumstances the judgment of the court was not valid. Judge Ingraham observed that if there was any- thing good in the objection 1tcould be taken in err to the Court of Appeals. Counsel for the prisoner replied that that woula decide the question in advance. Judge Ingraham was of opinion Uthat the new con- stitution had not gone tuto effect. Counsel for the prisoner urged that the case of Oakley vs, Aspinwall was a case in point, and that under the circumstances he had a right to rear- gue. When the prisoner was brougnt vefore the court and asked wity sentence of death should not be passed upou bim he would present this very argument by his counsel, [t was, therefore, desirable that the question should be argued before bis doom should be finally sealed. Judge Ingraham said that Keal would not be brought up for sentence again. The matter had been already settied, and it was only necessary to fix the day for execution. Jounsel for the prisoner further contended that it «was not upasual for a court to hear an arguinont, of which under certam circum: ces It Intent not have power to dispose. It would’ not do to say te Real’s friends that there was no warrant for devain- ing nim, and that they should therefore take him from the Tombs, Moreover, he claimed that the recent judgment of the General Term was under the new constitution entirely exploded. Judge Sutherland remarked that if the judgment by the General Term was exploded the motion now made was to explode the General Term. (Laughter.) Alter some further argument py ex-Judge Stuart Judge Clerke, in announcing the decision of the court, dented the motion. * Counsel for the prisoner then moved to amend the bill of exceptions, on the ground that an exception was taken in the court below which did not eg appear upon the face of the bill of exceptions whi Was stated to have been taken. The Court granted the motion, and the arguments Were set down for to morrow, NOT VERY PARTICULAR.
